Evie smiled at Hina's reassurance, and her smile grew upon seeing Naoko, "I, um, yes. I got lost on the way here... the, um, the G, P, S took me to the wrong place." She looked around and bit her lip nervously, "Did I arrive much too late, Naoko?" At Hina's question, she tried do shake off her anxiety and nodded, "His family is hosting me while I'm here. It is very kind of him."

"Ahh Miss Soujin. Yes, Miss Volkov here is an exchange student under the care of my family. My sister Yukie had gone to Romania and is now under the care of the Volkov family." He looks around the room. "I left earlier but I think I dropped my keys here." Naoko added, looking down embarrassingly.

Naoko laughs. "Well you certainly arrived after i left. However, since you are here now, it would be rude of me to depart again, so I think I'll stay until Miss Volkov goes home. I don't feel comfortable having her walk home alone at night."

"Oh no I couldn't do that. Besides, you and Mr. Van Droon have plans tonight as well." He looked around the pool area, and caught a glimpse of something shiny on the floor. It was, of course, the keys he dropped when he changed.

"Umm no, Miss Volkov, don't be like that. I uh, didn't have anything important to do tonight. It can wait."

Evie smiled at them both and tilted her head, "It is a swimming party, no?" She slipped off her sun dress and folded it into her purse before holding her hands out to the two of them. "Join me, please?"

Sieg smiled and looked at the others "come on man, let's just do it, besides, the later we are for dinner, the less time we'll have to spend with that freakshow I call a family" Sieg watched the two girls and smiled, being content with watching from the side

Hina's eyes widened at the sight of Evie in her bathing suit and she blushed deeply. "S-Sure..."

A soft giggle came from Evie's lips as she took hold of Hina's hand and smiled, looking to Naoko as he spoke. "No, no, you come too." she said, as if she'd completely made up her mind, and she took his hand as well. She took a few steps backwards, pulling them towards the edge of the pool. "The water is... how you say... um, cold?" she asked with a tilted head.

"The water is... how you say... um, cold?" she asked with a tilted head.

Evie smiles and nods, "Cold is good." She dipped a foot in and stepped a couple steps in, the water coming up to her knees. She looked back to Hina and Naoko, "It is not cold, it feels good." She reassured them that it was a good temperature by diving in the rest of the way, popping up for a breath several feet away. "You wish to join us?" she called to Sieg with a smile.

He shrugged and smiled "Why not" before running forward, diving back into the water "It's actually rather nice" He said with a caring smile, looking up at Hina "coming sweetie?" he asked with a chuckle

Evangeline ran her fingers through her hair and took out the band that held her ponytail back, thinking it to be a bit pointless since she was in the water. She turned to Naoko and giggled, "It is not cold, Naoko. You need to work in fields like I did, get tougher skin!" She teased him, her smile never leaving her face.
